Top Less - Danger Love

| Top Less - Danger Love |
Release Date - 27th August 2013
The word awesome is often over
used and used in the wrong way. So I won't use it here. No I will not. Instead,
I will use the word gorgeous. And the word lush. And even, just maybe, the
words rich and verdant. Top Less (have fun Googling them, by the way) are a
collective of souls that met in Scotland but now reside in Canada and that
certainly comes across in next single, 'Danger Love'. Sparse beats and
percussion gently encourage this song along while sweeping strings undulate
like the landscapes of the northern hemisphere before the lilting, wistful
vocals arrive to play on the horizon like a wild deer at first light. There are
shades of Kate Bush and Karen O to the vocals but also elements of the
experimentalism in the music that brings to mind the likes of Gilbert, Boards
of Canada, Lemon Jelly and Arcade Fire. Awesome, in its modern day usage, would
be too flippant a word for a song of such resplendent beauty which is all the
while modest and unassuming. The album, 'Top Less Gay Love Tekno Party', is out
in a few weeks too but don't be put off by the title which sounds like the
Vengaboys having a midlife crisis; this is important and worthwhile stuff.
